2020 ZL1 1LE A10 first 1/4 mile run
We drove the car down to Woodburn raceway in OR yesterday and I made my first run in the car on factory tires. I used the launch control set at 2400 rpm and slip at 8. Not sure I got up on the launch control quite right but I was super happy with the time for my first pass. Second pass I tried with traction control off, thats a no go!! Spun tires at least half track ran a 15 and still hit 121 mph!! We had to leave after that. Came home and ordered some wheels and drag radials!!
Here's the time slip I was in right lane, I haven't been to track in a while so my reaction time is Terrible but I was not really concerned just wanted a good hit. Ant |

I would say if that’s your first pass in the Z on street tires you did fantastic!
Well done

That’s a solid pass in a ZLE. Going with a drag set up will surely move that beast faster. You may hear a lot that the ZLE is too stiff for drag racing but with the proper wheel and tire selection I’m positive it’ll soften things up.
Keep us posted. |

I got a set of mickey 305/45r17 drag radial r for it so well see how it does. I'm not disappointed at all with an 11.50!! And for the record it was absolutely was my first pass at track, I reall haven't even beat on it on steet much either just enough to figure out the line lock and launch control. Car is 100percent stock only thing we did was 5 gal of 109 unleaded to 3/4 tank of 92 oct.

A10 is the drag king, std ZL1 with softer suspension settings is probably a little quicker (better weight transfer)

Also it’s probably the worst time of the year to run a decent time as far as DA. I think your time and mph are really good. I’m sure in optimal conditions you’ll drop 2-3 tenths and pick 1-2 mph. Thanks for sharing.

Very respectable. Good job! That is not a bad 60 foot time at all for a first time out. Impressed!

DA is density altitude, it is a calculation of a couple different atmospheric measurements ... lower the DA = better the air = faster the run.
You can expect to run about the same times in similar DA... |

reaction time doesn't affect your e.t....the clock starts when your car moves and breaks the starting beam.

Damn! 65 degrees in July?! I’m in south Texas and it’s 95-100 here during the day. At night it’s about 75 degrees at the lowest with tons of humidity.
